🦉Overview

In SoWork there are two default settings, available and unavailable. Easy right?

🚀 Walkthrough

✨ To set your status to Unavailable simply select Available in your video tile and click the toggle icon.

✨ After toggling you are now considered Unavailable. This means no one can connect to you for a proximity call, and you can leave a status so your team knows why you are currently unavailable. To do that, simply select the status of your choice.

✨ Now, when someone tries to click on your profile they will see you are unavailable and why.

💡Note:

Did you know you're able to customize what shows up under your video tile? You're now able to pin and unpin items that you'd like easier access to.
